Connected Speech & Natural Conversational Flow
When "netneutrality" is followed by a word starting with a vowel, glide the final consonant into the opening vowel (e.g. "netneutrality is" sounds like "netneutrality-iz").
Maintain the stress-timed rhythm of English: compress unstressed syllables rapidly so the beat of "netneutrality" aligns naturally with adjacent words.
Shifts primary stress to the antepenultimate syllable (two syllables back).
